Now with the new one we have decided to add some more money on top of the payment so that it will help with the principle and we won’t be in that situation next time.
My experience was different as I received more than my minimum I was willing to take for the new Montana. I am sure they made money on both ends. I received a reasonable discount on the new 5th wheel and generous trade on the 2003 Montana. Sight unseen, I was given a price by Tiara RV in Elkhart. They stood by the price when I came back to pick up the new coach. I am sure it is a function of demand for the trade market.
